Israeli Officials Have Proposed a Ceasefire If Hamas Disarm and Its Leaders Exit Gaza, But Questions Remain About Hamas' Interest in Such an Offer. Civilians Face dire Conditions With Over 4,000 Deaths Since Israel's Return to the Battlefield, Including At Least 10 More on Monday From Airstrikes Near Jabaliya. The Humanitarian Crisis Deepens As Displacement Continues and Aid Delivery Remains Unstable, While An Exhausted Israeli Military, Primarily Comprised Of Reservists, Faces Growing Doubts About Sustaining the Protracted Conflict.
